Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    i don't know about you but broken Linux audio has BEEN old news ever since i started using pipewire

    [–] DacoTaco@lemmy.world 16 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

    Pipewire has some neat tricks that i use on a daily basis but i can also make it crash on demand so idk :p. I have a restart script in my home directory for that exact reason.

    It just does not like audio going out my gpu, together with video, through my receiver and into my tv.
    Receiver not on while linux was booting? Guess what, pipewire reboot. Tv goes off because of "inactivity"? Thats a pipewire reboot

    ... And yet i love pipewire haha. But ye, audio issues are still a thing

    Have you reported the crashing issue to the developers of pipewire?

    [–] DacoTaco@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

    Not yet. Ive been too busy tbh. I assume that, like many linux tools, its a bitch to report something. Not just a easy bug tracker or something

    [–] DaTingGoBrrr@lemmy.ml 3 points 12 hours ago

    From what I found this is their official bug tracker

    https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues

    How is the latency on Pipewire? Have you tried using it for instruments at all?
